[Intro]
C
[Verse 1]
C F I say remember this moment in the back of my mind Am The time we stood with our shaking hands G F The crowds in stands went wild C We were the kings and the queens F And they read off our names Am G F It was the end of a era but the start of an age Am F G You held your head like a hero on a history book page
[Chorus]
C F And I was screaming Long live the walls we crashed through Am G How the kingdom lights shined just for me and you C F I was screaming, "long live all the magic we made" Am And bring on all the pretenders G C One day, we will be remembered
[Instrumental]

C Am F C Am F There's glitter on the floor after the party C Am F Girls carrying their shoes down in the lobby C Am F Candle wax and Polaroids on the hardwood floor
You and me from the night before but
[Chorus 1]
C Am F C Don't read the last page C Am F C But I stay when you're lost and I'm scared and you’re turning away Am F C I want your midnights C Am F C But I'll be cleaning up bottles with you on New Year’s Day

[Bridge]
G And the years passed Am F Like scenes of a show G Am F The Professor said to write what you know G Lookin' backwards C G F Might be the only way to move forward G Then the actors Am F Were hitting their marks G And the slow dance Am F Was alight with the sparks G And the tears fell C G F In synchronicity with the score G And at last C G F She knew what the agony had been for
[Bridge 2]
G Am F Hold on to spinning around G Am F Confetti falls to the ground G F May these memories break our fall

[Outro]
C G The only thing that's left is the manuscript F One last souvenir from my trip to your shores C G Now and then I reread the manuscript F But the story isn't mine anymore
